I assume food and drink is a given, otherwise its a death sentence
Myself, I would do it. Daily calisthenics to failure. 12 hours sleep a day to make the time pass quicker. Probably I would manifest a cool imaginary friend to keep myself company.
if you're under 21 maybe. otherwise most of the big milestones in your life are over. How much do you remember your 24th year of life? Your 36? Shit stops mattering so much once the hormones stabilize.
Yeah, you're reading it wrong
He's not 70-80lbs dumbass, it's a weighted pushup where you add that weight to your back
For reference that's >2.5 pl8s added to normal bw pushups, so of course the reps are lower
no you did not 4 years of that you fricking mong, you probably think: alright i already chilled in my mums basement that long cant be that hard, but this is something different. No stimuli at all, no window to look out even just once, nothing to read, not even the backside of a shampoo bottle. Alone the fact that you shitpost here already shows that you did not live this life. Everyone who istn a complete braindead vegetable would go crazy in that enviroment.
>give up one year of your life to be financially freed from a system of slavery and scams and evil, forever and ever
Yes. Unequivocally, yes. I would be spending all my time meditating on my life, having a blast doing body exercises, and fantasizing about all the things I'm going to be able to do once I'm free from wage slavery.
What? I'd do it for 1 billion
for 30? I would additionally just eat a whole orphanage and torch down a retirement home with a flamethrower, rape thirty dogs and five cats, hunt down a beaar and break my own leg as a bonus for 30 fricking billion
I have a great imagination, I can literally spend days daydreaming
I don't do it anymore, but as a kid, I used to reconstruct movies and games in my head, maybe I'll start doing it again
I would find a way to write on the walls, maybe make ink from my shit, or just use the food, to write down ideas, little stories, poems, or even draw
I would work out, eat, sleep and daydream
and do this
if you get bored just jerk off using your imagination
Only imaginationlets are afraid of this. A years time is trivial.
It's one thing to be in solitary confinement that long. It's another thing to be in what is essentially a sensory deprivation chamber with no sense of time.
>Spend one year in mental agony >Nearly go insane >Do irreparable damage to my psyche and ability to connect with others >Finally get out, crying, afraid of others. Their faces are alien to me. >Someone woman who says she's my wife is congratulating me. I don't care. It's so loud. Everyone is so loud. THere is so much color.

You would suffer brain damage with a year under these conditions, not worth it. Confining people to a room like this with zero stimulus is actually a practiced form of torture.
real homies already live in these conditions (not npc cattle like u)
one year in mental agony
go insane >>Do irreparable damage to my psyche and ability to connect with others
get out, crying, afraid of others. Their faces are alien to me.
literally me
You would suffer brain damage with a year under these conditions, not worth it. Confining people to a room like this with zero stimulus is actually a practiced form of torture.
No imagination.
You have squares on the wall which is already stimulus, you can easily give them all names, use them to divide thoughts into smaller subthoughts, use them to mark chapters of a story.
You can sing, teach yourself different movements, invent ceremonies, puzzle out ideas, take off one of your socks and try to hit a particular tile, make it into a narrative game where if you hit it something good happens, if you don't, something bad happens
You can do a lot to keep your brain occupied as long as you can get confortable, have solid ground to move around on and the lights go out long enough to get a good level of sleep.
If you got sunlight in there sometimes, see another person sometimes (maybe the guy who brings you food), and talk to him (or get to send and receive letters), then you could do it with your based strong positive attitude. If not you'll fricken die. It'll be the same as several minutes without air.
Is this actually true or just some gay shit morons imagined out of nowhere? I've never actually seen proof that staying in a room like this will actually do damage but it seems to be something NPC normies all believe for some reason.
I also don't believe it. I have so much thinking that happens on a daily basis that I would never get bored.
And I could just pretend to be on IST or play games in my head if I got reeeeeaally bored.
You are probably one of those guys that is used to be around people, or those who cannot stop doing things. It takes discipline but it's not impossible to do it. I'd worry if we were talking about many years, In that case I agree.

You will start tripping so hard after time without no stimulus
You literally start dreaming while awake
Check out reports of solitary confinement

Being in an empty room would tear your mind in half. If you have the option to cancel the challenge and leave you'd do it at some point. But maybe if you get locked into the commitment I'd do it to set my family and friends up for life when I get out.
Who cares you end insane if you are rich? We have plenty of those and no one seems to have a problem.
>wahh you'd go crazy
are you people actually fricking stupid? 1 year is nothing. literally nothing would happen to you
That leaves a lot for entertainment. Id bring my barbell and weights, piano, guitars, brewing equipment and supplies, calendar and clock, and so long as i can see my family regularly id be fine. By the end i would swole beyond belief, truly master guitar and piano, and develop minor liver damage.
>you have no books, movies, phones, consoles, NOTHING.
so i have nothing but it doesnt say anything about having someone else somehow smuggle shit in. >Can you do it?
considering i would do everything in my power to cheat the system that would depend on whether the person paying 30 billion dollars accepts me being a literal weasel with the lax rules.
otherwise im not sure... going insane and then giving an insane man 30 billion dollars? that sounds like fun for me, hell on earth for hundreds of millions of other people lol. probably would do it if seriously offered it, people have been in the hole in prison for years and years and they dont get anything for that.
Assuming they feed and water me and I'm not just gonna die in the room, it'd be pretty easy. Meditation and bodyweight exercise.
When I get out I'll take that 30 billion and change the world. With that kind of money I could foster the talents of thousands of folk who think like I do, seep all sorts of fun ideas into everyone else's heads. The enemy may have infinimoney but they don't have the quality we do.
A worthy sacrifice.
What is the time cost here? Does it go up with each consecutive day? $30 billion for a year is $82 million per day. $3.4 million per hour and $950 per second. Can I just stay in there for a few hours? What if it climbs exponentially? I stay in there for a year and two days, do I get $4.2 trillion? At what point does this currency become worthless?
I’d do it. Just jerk off, do calisthenics, meditate, lucid dream and Jamiroquai that shut up. One year later I’ve secured the wealth and fortune for generations to come.
Can I leave whenever I’m ready to pussy out and call it quits? Is there a toilet a shower/towels and something to fap unto? I’m assuming food snd drink also and a bed and those lights turn out at bed time most importantly?

Three possibilities: >you emerge with a damaged psyche, but you're capable of mostly adapting/healing into a state in which you can enjoy your wealth and have normal positive human relationships >you emerge with a damaged psyche that can be sort-of healed into a state where you can enjoy your wealth in stretches of independence/lucidity, but you also experience stretches of insanity where you must be cared for or institutionalized and wealth is irrelevant to your suffering; normal human relationships are temporary and rocky >you emerge with a psyche so damaged that you can never live independently, form positive human relationships, or meaningfully push the needle on your pain with your wealth
I like to think I'd land somewhere between 1 and 2 if I had adequate prep work and a game plan of mental activities to work with
Even if I landed in category 3 I could donate a lot of money to people I love and causes I cared about and make a bigger difference in the world than I could 100 ordinary lifetimes, so I think it would be worth it
No problem for me. I'm already used to being alone and being put in situations where there is no entertainment or anything to put your mind at work or focus. It's torture for some people but I have been pushed since young age to endure these. As long as there is food, water I can do it.
i did this for 4 years in college and it cost me 4k euros a year, frick yeah i can do that. if you’re recording be prepared to have roughly 300 days worth of solo porn content with a hairy ass ginger dude
If they don't turn off the lights ever then no, otherwise yes. I could get some good meditation and exercise in. Actually, if they allowed me a notebook and pencil that would be great, but not necessary
That room would have no sound coming in or out. lights on all the time. You have nothing to do for a year. It would make your solitary confinement look like vacation. You wouldnt last a week in there.
Can you quote where do you get all this information from? I have not read how lights even work. Do they get turned off at night? Are these actual noise cancelling walls? They look not despite being able to mitigate some thanks to the cushions.
That room is from a psychiatric hospital and they don't try to make the patients even more crazy when they are put there. The cushions are to avoid them to harm against walls.
You have no idea how much just not having any sense of time would frick you up very quickly. Just a couple days in you'd already have your entire sleeping schedule beyond fricked. Imagine going to sleep, you sleep for just 45 minutes and you wake up thinking it's already the next day with you sleeping for 7-8 hours. Now compound that for 365 days, just a month or two in you'd already think you're very close to being there a whole year. But it just keeps going and going.
And this is just about not having sense of time, not to mention the fact that you reside in a completely featureless bright white silent room. By month three you'd already have the entire room smeared in shit just to get any kind of mental stimulation and you STILL have 9 months left to live there all by yourself.
This isn't the case of "not being a normalgay" or any kind of moron cope like that, you would have permanent drastic mental problems from it no matter what. You finally get out, get the 30 billion dollars and you buy a gun with it and have a nice day in the head the same day.
You are underestimating the experiences some of us have been through. Perhaps we are already damaged, or simply don't care if that happens anymore.
You are underestimating just how much it means to you to know if it's night or day outside. Just to know what time is it when you wake up. >b-but I lived like a lonely basement dwelling friendless virgin all my life!
Yeah and you seek endless mental stimulation inside of that room, which in most cases is the computer. All the while being aware what time is it.
Don't be so quick to project your own life to me. I have been in a dark cave in south america for weeks, alone and eating cheap cans of beans only. Hardest part was to be dirty without showering. It is true your sleep cycle gets fricked but that is not the worst it gets. There is hearing hallucinations where you think someone is there with you. Scary shit. Your health deteriorates from lack of sun and your senses readjust to the point it is VERY painful to get out.

>he isn't capable of using his own mind for stimulation and even developing his own way of achieving an approximation of the passing of time
literally mentally ngmi
Yeah bro you're the only human on the planet who can "achieve approximation of the passing of time" without any external stimulus that's exactly right, you are very special and unique such a genius
>you need to be a 500 IQ genius to learn a creative way to count the time
damn dude, just how empty your goddamn mind is
are you even capable of imagining an apple
i dunno, but perhaps you could put a small piece of poop high in the wall and see how much time it takes to slide down.
it is by no means precise, the poop could just fall sometimes, but this shit clock could give you a slight idea of time
I can imagine an apple every which way you want. It's the strength of my brain that would kill me in there. I'm sure some of you would make it but it's not because you're smart.
And then you go to sleep in a bright room, sleep for 2 hours, you wake up in a still bright room and tell me how would you know how much time has passed when you were sleeping?
Both your hair and nails would grow way slower once you wouldn't see the sun for a longer period of time. They would also become very brittle and break very easily as well.
The same would happen to every normal healthy brain.
Go for just 45 minutes in a sensory deprivation isolation tank and you'll start to see and hear things by the end of it even though you are in a pitch black soundproof room with ear plugs in with nothing happening around you. That doesn't mean that you're mentally ill, but that your brain is desperate for any kind of stimulus when deprived of it entirely. Same exact concept in OP situation, just on a much much longer scale.
Where do you all keep ass pulling "literal sensory deprivation," it's a padded room you dumbfrick
Don't bother anon. They are upset because they are unable to pass the challenge, so to not feel less they pull imaginary requirements that aren't there to say it's impossible for everybody else as well.
You sound so impressionable, like you watched a TikTok video about this topic once and believed everything an overdramatic narrator told you. Plenty of people have survived long periods of isolation and confinement throughout history.
black is dead in the bottom left, but has two big corners, white's groups in the top right are probably alive, but really small. I think black wins unless white can significantly reduce the bottom right.
Is this supposed to be hard? Even extroverts learned how easy it is to isolate themselves thanks to fraudemics lockdowns.
$30bil for 1 year isolated from humanity is absolute bliss if something, it would be the biggest brain detoxifying of my life.
If you want to make it supposed to have stakes, at least make the challenge about being jailed and surviving a prison full of feral Black folk or something.
>it would be the biggest brain detoxifying of my life.
The opposite, it would TOXIFY your brain to suicide. No sense of time, no knowledge of night and day, complete silence without any reaction no matter what you do, no mental stimulation except constant bright white lights. You'd go through the gooning/working out/speaking to yourself/fantasizing cycle countless times in just two weeks, now have fun for 342 more days
Are you pretending to be moronic? Do you unironically not see any difference between seeting in a room with internet and sitting in an absolutely empty room? Turn off your pc and stare at a wall for an hour, then report on your experience.
Even funnier is the over zealous "le quirky and unique introverts" thinking they'd survive even a week let alone a whole year because "I hate people, piece of cake :)"
It has nothing to do with a lack of human interaction at all. It has everything to do with a total deprivation of stimulation and sense of time.
But that's okay, you can pretend to be the internet tough guy over some fantasy situation.
I keep hearing the lack of sensory stimulus and that but that is not true. You're not going to be put in one of those hippie swimming tanks where you get hallucinations. You have:
1-Light in the room
2-You can hear your footsteps, yourself and any noise you make
3-You can feel textures, temperature, pain
4-You can taste food and beverages
5-You can smell, even if it's your own farts
There is still a sense of time, it is going to be less accurate. You'll sleep at weird hours because you're not doing shit and that will be your first obstacle before the body notices the day/night cycle is gone. It will adapt to a different point of reference. If you are getting meals handed over at a regular time you can use that, but if you're isolated in a room without external input you can still manage ways of finding patterns or creating these yourself. Of course if you do nothing and just let the room make you your b***h you're going to lose your mind. That is why everyone here keeps making fun of extroverts who are not used to use their wits to extract resources from unthinkable places. It's not super challenging once you are already used to some things.
Anyway it's not guaranteed that one can succeed. Perhaps some will give up at the 6 month mark. Others will get traumatized and have problems to get out. Some may just not come back sane. I wouldn't just send a newbie there, has to be someone that already has an idea of what awaits in the other side of that door. Mental strength, knowledge and creativity are a must.
Lmao yeah bro the other side of a completely featureless padded out white asylum room is a nice window that overlooks a garden with a pretty lady taking care of the flowers am i rite.
I dont need the window, just gave it to you as a symbol of hope so you would feel less claustrophobic. Some in this thread are already having an emotional breakdown already from imagining the room. Don't worry, I'm here. I wont leave you alone, sweety.
Yeah you don't need any extermal stimulus am i rite, you're just replying and writing these posts as punishment and you'd actually prefer staring at a blank wall in a locked bright white empty basement for 365 days straight am i rite
We get it, you would never survive without being terminally online 24/7, you completely fried your dopamine receptors, etc etc
Not everyone is like you though
Nice projection. Protip: being on a computer isn't the only possible external stimulus. Just being to look outside is a huge stimulus when you're left with nothing but white bright walls.
Some of us are enduring harder shit than not watching the light cycle behind a glass. That is why so many empathize with the idea of being easy to do this experiment despite the effort and the risks.
I myself have lived many years locked with an unmedicated schizophrenic brother who does not stop talking to me and being a nuisance 24/7. The happiest day in the past 10 years was when he fainted for half an hour due to low blood pressure. The psychological torment is hard to resist. Peace to me seems too tempting even if it kills me im that room. Is the best way I could think of dying, alone and in silence.
Of course you see it as "peace" in comparison to a hectic living environment, but it would be the opposite of peace in a short period of time. You would develop 10 different unmedicated schizophrenic brothers living in your very own head in such a room
I already spend most of my days schizo-maxxing in silence in my maladaptive daydreams, this sounds like the easiest money I could ever make. As long as they provide me with healthy meals and supplements and a way to monitor my physical vitals, idgaf about spending a year or even 2 for twice that money
>play around pretending I'm a knight, cowboy, pirate, space soldier, whatever, for a full year like I did in my room when I was a kid, only this time I can actually do all the jumping around and rolling and falling down I want to
At the bare minimum I would want to have it live streamed and be able to read a chatroom about what people are saying, that would help my sanity. Also you could even feed me the same shit every single day like mac n' cheese or whatever.
You guys are absolutely delusional. Losing track of time will destroy you. Vsause did it for only 3 days and he turned into a complete schizo at the end.
Has there ever been a time where the world was good and just? And the point of this is to get the money not to change the state of things. If that bothers you then now you have money to start making a change. Make it your motivation instead of complaining that is not worth it.
Also everyone is focusing in the picture that is an illustration. The prompt says you get nothing and still get to live 1 year. Where does the food come from? The water? The image shows nothing yet there has to be a toilet. It's not in the picture but it's given for granted these things are there. The room can be anything that is locked. It could have a small glass on the top that lets the sun in or maybe not. If the room kills you the challenge has no purpose. It must contain a way to sense time for the same reason you're given food. If you can't live without sensory input then it's an execution room and thus there is no challenge. You're making the mistake of taking it literal when there are some interpretations to be made.
The challenge is your will power, not having entertainment or anything at all to do. So you must thrive in that environment. It's not a challenge against time, physics or the biochemistry of your body.
That's because there is an excess of college 1st year posters who read the text and spam "hahah he forgot to say there if there is oxygen in the room!".
It's that mentality of trying to search for the false statement they negate the basics which starts by the reading comprehension component. The picture doesn't say a lot of things but it's not forbidding them either. That is where you reach an impasse. We'd sit and argue ad infinitum of what you are allowed and not, what there is and what not.
The pic says you have to be in a room for 1 year and makes a big emphasis on the lack of entertainment because the author is obviously addressing the point of the challenge to be your mental discipline. The room is not your challenge you morons. The point of the room being empty and locked is so you can't entertain yourself. If the lack of light kills you then someone will put a hole in a wall and let you see the sun only or whatever solution to this there can be. It's not a university exam to find the flaw in, don't be so fricking dense.
That would be pretty easy way to get 30b. >but you'd go crazy >muh sense of time >muh day and night
I am already completely batshit insane right down to constantly talking to myself out loud and even arguing with myself. I once spent two weeks watching paint dry on a concrete wall, literally every day, the entire day except for sleeping, eating and shitting. Bring it on.
My circadian rhythm doesn’t work. I can only sleep if I get so exhausted that I fall over, or if I listen to sounds of people yawning/watch people yawn. For the first 12 years of my life my main form of entertainment was pacing back and forth, thinking, and playing imaginary games with nothing. I love to draw and play with my own blood, I do calisthenics and running, and I’ve heard that you actually sleep longer when in these situations. My only issue would be my family, gf, and my fraternity. I’d be confident a few months ago, but now I’d probably develop a sort of paranoia about the people I love, unless that is that they’d be on board with this. I wouldn’t worry about my gf cheating because we both already slept around and I am the most beautiful man in a 500 mile radius.
>essentially Count of Monte Cristo on easy mode
spend the days planning your revenge. use your feces to write your manifesto and count the days by how often they bring you your gruel.
I would need a few things but I could do it.
-Clock
-Digital Calendar
-Typewriter
-Lube and imagination
-Cook my own food
-One diverse gym machine
-Textbooks on collegiate subjects
It would be the easiest shit in the world, probably comfy too.
For all the homosexuals saying “this would be so easy because im already a loser” I have a task for you. Stare at a completely empty wall and count to one full minute. Congrats! only 525,599 more to go! Tell me more about how you’d breeze through it cause you’ve never had sex.
It takes 5 seconds to google a hundred years of sensory depravation research and the observed mental destruction it consistently causes.
You are all the cringiest wannabe anime protags on the planet lmao I bet half of you are just waiting to get Isekaied
I still don't get why people are making associations of experiments that have nothing to do with this. You're not getting thrown in the confinement room of a prison in pure darkness for days. There is no sensory deprivation in the room either and the rules are very, I repeat, VERY unspecified. How are you fed? What happens with the food leftovers? You underestimante how little can keep a man alive in such situation. If I have a pile of empty cans of sardines or something of the sort I can entertain myself for months. Do I shit in a corner or there is some hole in the ground? Can I wipe or shower? Is it a 100% blind room or the is a door/windows? Do I have a chair or a table? I could doodle in the wall with a sharp object or my long nails if nobody is watching. I could go on but the point is the key to solve this is in details that are not specified. It is doable and it is not at the same time depending on what you perceive the challenge to be. If it's that much open to interpretation then we're wasting our time arguing.
Ok let's say i'm the one hosting the challenge. Obviously the person would have a sink, shower and toilet for health and sanitation purposes. As for food it should be random and given through a hole in the door by someone that doesn't talk to you. You get three journals, and three books of your choice. Now what do you think?
Maybe you should read the link you posted, which describes a torture procedure with a list of items this challenge does not enforce. More over the picture OP posted is from a madhouse room, which is designed among many things to avoid self injury. It's not aimed to blind you from receiving sensorial input.
Further more the point of the whole thing is not to endure a torture but to prove you can live without being fed with distractions. That is why there is no effort explaining the details that would matter in a survival challenge, which this is not. That, assuming the creator of this was just lazy or dumb. Point is we can't really draw conclusions that far and those who see it impossible are as wrong as those who think it's a walk in the park.
OP posted a pic of a white room with bright lights and the prompt says you will have nothing at all for a year which to me implies you are meant to be deprived of any stimulation or sense of time. I think you are impugning an awful lot of intent that is not there. I am however willing to agree that OP is both intensely dumb and lazy.
Just google the source of the picture, anon. It can give the perception of being that kind of room but it's not, which leads to so many to fall for the confirmation bias. "I think it's this kind of challenge" -> the room looks similar to one -> that confirms it.
I would pay for get in something like this, but someone provides me with healthy food that hit my macros, and also reams of paper so I can improve my math skills.
This post is extremely telling of how coddled/underage IST truly is. It seems like none of you have done this before. I guarantee none of you would make it a month in there. When you don't know how much time is passing your mind plays immense tricks on you. What felt like 3 days was actually just 18 hours. You start to sleep sporadically as your body mostly relies on the sun to keep it's circadian rhythm. Psychosis would kick in within 2 weeks and all your attempts at keeping your mind busy will fail on day 8. After 4 months (you'll think it's been a year+) you'll imagine that humanity has ceased to exist, that this is just God's (even if you were atheist going in) cruel punishment for all the sins you've committed in your life. Or perhaps the devil had plotted with all those people you knew in your life, they all were secretly conspiring to give you some semblance of normality before tricking you into this hellbox. You'll beg for mercy. You'll go over every sin you can remember. Then you'll start biting off your flesh to punish yourself faster hoping to please god, hoping to escape purgatory faster, hoping to be allowed to die.
There's only one scenario that you get through it without going insane, and that's if you've mastered meditation to the degree that you can literally shut off your mind. To the point that it does nothing. Because if you give the mind an inch it will take a mile. One leaked thought will flourish into a train of thought and the first train will go along the lines of "why am I meditating how long has it been this is stupid I need to get out i need fresh air the air isn't being circulated well enough I'm suffocating is the room getting smaller every time I wake up what's that ringing in my ears do I have tinnitus" etc etc. If you go in untrained you are fricked. You'll be begging to be let out within a few weeks unless you're a crazy bastard. In which case you'll make it a few months at best.
I don't think anyone is denying that kind of scenario ends with such outcome. Most people here are arguing the case where, thanks to finding holes in the premises, they could sneak techniques to keep themselves sane.
When I was a kid I was forced to stay alone in rooms where there were no toys or books, just me and furniture. Spent many years like that. It's not the same as this thing, but for a kid was enough for me to grow up not wanting to have human connections. This shit really messes you up, I am the living proof that this is true. The question is how much restricted this is because everyone here decided to see it under a different layer. I think one tends to find a catch based on what they believe it's harder to overcome. Lonely men think they have it easy so they underestimate that things in extreme don't work the same as in installments. Humans are designed to endure harsh scenarios for some time but not forever.
If this has no way to cheat it and the rules are extremely strict then it's a dead trap. Yet the possibilities are endless as long as there are things you can bend to your advantage.
If it's that kind of confinement that is made to torture people then they are done for. Yet the setting is a wide spectrum because, thinking back to the covid days, I recall people who were normally functional adults who were forced into the neet life for a few months with all comforts yet they took their lives. It wasn't the fear or hysteria, they couldn't bear to be alone. Neets do have a small point when they think of themselves as more adapted than the average person, but they underestimate the same would happen to them the closer this gets to total isolation.
But well it's a very human trait to think you can do stuff until you try. Everyone here may claim that they could climb a big mountain, even with equipment. The bodies one can see are evidence of the contrary.
Still most here who are neets received the short straw in life and are depressed, most already with disorder issues. Can't really blame them for overestimating their capacity to endure more of the same while they ignore the dangers. No different of a cocaine addict that gets another snort thinking his heart wont stop.
I couldn't trust myself to voluntarily stay for a full year, I don't think anyone could. I'm assuming they lock you in there for a year when you make the decision.
your mind still adapts to total and complete isolation, it just so happens that the adaption is a fractured psyche and you are pulled out of isolation talking to your hand like its wilson from castaway. there are some neets who live on that borderline of being fricking nuts and still managing to function, for them i guess the transition would be a lot smoother than throwing ultra giga chad into a room away from his vast social network and constant social stimuli
this is awesome and I for sure would do it. Just meditate all day, workout when I'm not, and sleep. It would be the best year of my life. I already unplugged from society for 5 years 1 more wouldn't hurt. And after about 6 or 7 days of straight meditation time stops and you enter eternity. Only reason I'm not living in a cave right now doing just that is because I've already done it. Give me 30B for doing the easiest thing ever? Yes please.
I feel like the only way you'd be able to survive this with your brain somewhat intact would be if you had a way to gauge the passing of time. Without that you'd go batshit crazy and your sense of time would be utterly fricked. Ten days in you'd probably think you'd been in there a month.
If your meals were given to you at a consistent interval you could at least try and use that to count the time and you could always keep a running tally. Even dots of blood on the walls would be enough.
I think people here are seriously underestimating the impact of absolutely zero stimulus has on the mind and are overestimating how resilient they are.

You won't be able to reach a billion, sure, but hitting ~5 million shouldn't be impossible
everyone involved in this thread is moronic lmao
you guys really think because you've been lonely and live in shit conditions with no friends and an escapist imagination, it's the same as surviving a year of literal sensory deprivation. peak dunning-krueger.
holy frick you're dumb. have you ever read a book in your life?
a padded room with no sunlight, no human contact, no stimulation and no way to tell the passage of time is sensory deprivation. it doesn't matter what your moronic definition personally is, it's a documented thing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_torture
keep deluding yourself though lol, it's funny. please post here next time there's a news article about someone dying to a group of 10 bears that you could've "actually fought them off with your bare hands" and that it's "not that hard"
You're the dumb one. Padded rooms aren't made to make you go crazy. Yea anon, they just stick crazy people in them to make them more crazy. No, they're made to help you calm down. Please look up what a real sensory deprivation room looks like
>Yea anon, they just stick crazy people in them to make them more crazy
not only are you regular dumb but you're also illiterate. it says right there that it's been historically used as a torture technique on regular people. but instead of reading you only get your information from fictional media and memes and think white padded rooms as seen on tv are only for crazy people in asylums.
you sound like a 17 year old with no idea of how the world actually works. maybe you think you're mentally strong because you deal with shit living conditions and loneliness, thinking you're special for suffering your own mediocrity and that it sets you apart from normies. but please keep telling us that you're built different and decades of declassified military interrogation and torture techniques, with carefully studied effects that have worked time and time again are actually wrong
You're the illiterate. The picture you posted literally proves my point. The description of the white room doesn't match the original picture. Dumb ass I swear

you're right sport, i'm sure you could!! and if you were on the titanic i bet things would've been different, you would've shown the iceberg whose boss
>lol fricking normies, this is no issue for me, I've been doing all my life
Learn to read Black folk. It says NOTHING. You would have to sit there alone with your mind and thoughts during one year without evasion, which is by the way what you do every time you are losing your time on the internet.
You gaygets can't even last a day isolated without checking your computer/phone.
moronic take, you are either receive trully nothing and die from dehydration (and that will make the challenge pointless, and thats why nobody choose this stupid interpretation) or you get food, water and some hygienic stuff and then you can have some sensory stimulus.
>your local mental hospitals for having torture chambers
Have you only watched some random movies and think that's how real life hospitals and asylums today work?
The source of the picture is from one. You can search it yourself. If your local facility for the mentally ill happen to have one of these, do us the favor of telling them to stop using these. Thank you.
Asylums don't exist in the US today the way they used to. Unless you're living in a thirdie country or are privy to secret conspiracies, your "local" hospital today absolutely does not have one of those
I don't know where you are from nor where anyone else is either, this board has no flags attached to posters. If that is the case with your country then I can rest with ease knowing your mental patients are receiving a more humane treatment than it was in darker days.
For everyone else reading this, hopefully these rooms are a thing of the past. If not then I pray that you can make them reconsider their practices. I leave you my most sincere wish for luck on that quest.
I've seen a lot of points regarding the lack of a concept of time, but to me the key is that it doesn't say you will be alone or unable to talk to people. To me the answer is predicated on that.
So one of the earliest forms of American prison was in Philadelphia in the late 18th century, there was no talking allowed whatsoever, as both punishment and a purantical time for self reflection when they'd release the prisoners after sentences longer than a few months they often had lost their minds, due to the lack of social interaction. Like most of you I think people are in fact c**ts, and to be avoided, but as a species we are still 99% pleisotcene, and therefore are still pack animals, you may be introverts, but likely you still interact with someone whether it be a friend, relative, or through work by physical or technological means. The picture seems to be the view into the cell, show me the 4th wall and we'll talk, cause if i can still at least talk to people then I think it's doable, you'd have at least one form of stimulation and could ask how long it's been. Then you'd just have to keep reminding yourself you'll work way more hours in a job over your lifetime for considerably less or you'll snap in there and have a nice day either way financials problem solved.
Im going to eat, drink and jerk off my way out. If im horny, drunk and high most of the time i can escape the mental decay in the room. The rest of the time i will workout, sleep, eat, shit, daydream, snack, craft a book in my head and more shit. Its going to be unhealthy and i will feel bad many times but i will make up for it once im out.
It's not that bad of an approach if we consider a coma patient can come back after years, a stoned guy in a room could survive with some luck. I would not do it myself though.
Over half the thread was one guy panicking over the mere thought of being in that room and projecting his deep fears onto others lol
This challenge is not as big deal as he desperately tries to force it, unless you are a mentally healthy normalgay or somebody who never faced loneliness in his life
Even if they were to give you 1000 gorillion bucks, nobody can survive there for more than a week. There was no mention about food, water or even a shitter. Even if you had food and water, all the shit would eventually fill the room killing you slowly.
Solitary confinement is considered torture for a reason. You will never be normal again after it. You won't be the same person when you come out, you'll struggle with even basic tasks like drinking water or standing up. You won't be able to enjoy video games or anime anymore and you'll probably never sleep for more than 2 hours a day. People really underestimate brain damage.
>You will never be normal again after it. You won't be the same person when you come out, you'll struggle with even basic tasks like drinking water or standing up. You won't be able to enjoy video games or anime anymore
Sounds like most people over 40
I wouldn't do it, I don't care about money
I would do it. I don't care about money.
So im a allowed a watch. If i get food, drink and a watch i can do it
Which part of NOTHING do you not understand?
I assume food and drink is a given, otherwise its a death sentence
Myself, I would do it. Daily calisthenics to failure. 12 hours sleep a day to make the time pass quicker. Probably I would manifest a cool imaginary friend to keep myself company.
You wouldn’t last 4 days mate
>Which part of NOTHING do you not understand?
>I assume food and drink is a given
Which part of NOTHING do you not understand?
She's clearly been taking WAY better care of herself. Nice to see an "internet girl" not acting like a turbo sloor or being fat for a change.
This would give you brain damage
Wageslaving gives more brain damage
Source?
Just take a look at the average boomer nearby
if you're under 21 maybe. otherwise most of the big milestones in your life are over. How much do you remember your 24th year of life? Your 36? Shit stops mattering so much once the hormones stabilize.
Do pushups and stuff until you die of dehydration. Sign me up.
Yeah, I'd be able to do it.
Would you be able to do it like I did your mom last night?
Yes. And thank you, she's an old, lonely lady, please visit her more often.
I would die because there's nothing to eat or drink
I've always wanted to be in something like this. Seems like I can finally be at peace and meditate. Also martial arts and pushups.
Already did 4 years, yes I'll fricking do. It. Will be absolute hell though. But I'll follow Bruce Lee's regime.
What's the food/hygiene situation like
all you need is infinite wrist curls
3 sets of ten pushups? 70-80 lbs? Wut? Am I reading this wrong somehow?
They are weighted pushups. Like putting weight on your back with a vest.
Yeah, you're reading it wrong
He's not 70-80lbs dumbass, it's a weighted pushup where you add that weight to your back
For reference that's >2.5 pl8s added to normal bw pushups, so of course the reps are lower
Frick, I meant >1.5 pl8
>4x6 french press
based as frick
lel
Why would anyone take lifting advice from someone this dyel?
Why would you want a strength build bro? that shit is gay. go for dex.
he was 5 7 140 lbs btw
Why did they write the exercise twice?
no you did not 4 years of that you fricking mong, you probably think: alright i already chilled in my mums basement that long cant be that hard, but this is something different. No stimuli at all, no window to look out even just once, nothing to read, not even the backside of a shampoo bottle. Alone the fact that you shitpost here already shows that you did not live this life. Everyone who istn a complete braindead vegetable would go crazy in that enviroment.
wonder if he used a sandbag for most of those weights
>pullups
>bodyweight squats
>pullups on that ledge
>situps
>handstand presses
>shadow boxing and hitting pads
>running in circles
What’s not to like?
>Pullups
Pull up on fricking what?
You run up the wall and hang from the tile
probably the overhead fluorescent lighting for 8,760 consecutive hours
maybe somewhere a little more reasonable
Have you never lived with a women before? That shit is way worse.
can you rape and/or kill the woman without external repercussions?
Either way she'll say it was non consensual so I say do it anyway.
Yup. Solitary confinement is a b***h
Do you not see the look on the guy's face?
>you have NOTHING
I would starve to death
Moronic question.
>give up one year of your life to be financially freed from a system of slavery and scams and evil, forever and ever
Yes. Unequivocally, yes. I would be spending all my time meditating on my life, having a blast doing body exercises, and fantasizing about all the things I'm going to be able to do once I'm free from wage slavery.
What? I'd do it for 1 billion
for 30? I would additionally just eat a whole orphanage and torch down a retirement home with a flamethrower, rape thirty dogs and five cats, hunt down a beaar and break my own leg as a bonus for 30 fricking billion
I have a great imagination, I can literally spend days daydreaming
I don't do it anymore, but as a kid, I used to reconstruct movies and games in my head, maybe I'll start doing it again
I would find a way to write on the walls, maybe make ink from my shit, or just use the food, to write down ideas, little stories, poems, or even draw
I would work out, eat, sleep and daydream
and do this
based
oh, I'd also practice singing, do my vocal reps
maybe start rapping and freestyling
I would kill you for half a billion dollars (or for free, I don't like you at all)
you're a killer
queeeeeen
gunpowder and gelatine
dynamite with a laser beam
guaranteed to blow my mind
It's one thing to be in solitary confinement that long. It's another thing to be in what is essentially a sensory deprivation chamber with no sense of time.
You'd lose your mind within a couple months.
I'd do calisthenics. I hate my job so much that I'd do it
So no entertainment. What about food, water etc. Do I have workout equipment? Can my wife and kids visit me?
And is there somewhere to shit and bathe?
Yes, the corner on the left.
Designated shitting corner

one year in mental agony
go insane
>>Do irreparable damage to my psyche and ability to connect with others
get out, crying, afraid of others. Their faces are alien to me.
literally me
I will spend that year thinking about where i'm gonna spend that money, i will workout every day meditate and sleep
You would suffer brain damage with a year under these conditions, not worth it. Confining people to a room like this with zero stimulus is actually a practiced form of torture.
no you wouldn't get a grip
No imagination.
You have squares on the wall which is already stimulus, you can easily give them all names, use them to divide thoughts into smaller subthoughts, use them to mark chapters of a story.
You can sing, teach yourself different movements, invent ceremonies, puzzle out ideas, take off one of your socks and try to hit a particular tile, make it into a narrative game where if you hit it something good happens, if you don't, something bad happens
You can do a lot to keep your brain occupied as long as you can get confortable, have solid ground to move around on and the lights go out long enough to get a good level of sleep.
If you got sunlight in there sometimes, see another person sometimes (maybe the guy who brings you food), and talk to him (or get to send and receive letters), then you could do it with your based strong positive attitude. If not you'll fricken die. It'll be the same as several minutes without air.
The lights are on 24/7. You have no sense of time.
Is this actually true or just some gay shit morons imagined out of nowhere? I've never actually seen proof that staying in a room like this will actually do damage but it seems to be something NPC normies all believe for some reason.
I also don't believe it. I have so much thinking that happens on a daily basis that I would never get bored.
And I could just pretend to be on IST or play games in my head if I got reeeeeaally bored.
You are probably one of those guys that is used to be around people, or those who cannot stop doing things. It takes discipline but it's not impossible to do it. I'd worry if we were talking about many years, In that case I agree.
pussy
Hell with 30 billion dollars you could hire all the doctors and therapists in the world to undo all that psychological damage.
>pick random high number
>divide by 6 in your head
>take the remainder and add 1
>bam you have a six sided die
>wahh you'd go crazy
are you people actually fricking stupid? 1 year is nothing. literally nothing would happen to you
You won't have food or water or oxygen so you'll die since you have nothing and will be happy
That leaves a lot for entertainment. Id bring my barbell and weights, piano, guitars, brewing equipment and supplies, calendar and clock, and so long as i can see my family regularly id be fine. By the end i would swole beyond belief, truly master guitar and piano, and develop minor liver damage.
Does
>NOTHING
mean nothing to you?
no clothes?
Only imaginationlets are afraid of this. A years time is trivial.
>imaginationlets
So 95% of the population
>you have no books, movies, phones, consoles, NOTHING.
so i have nothing but it doesnt say anything about having someone else somehow smuggle shit in.
>Can you do it?
considering i would do everything in my power to cheat the system that would depend on whether the person paying 30 billion dollars accepts me being a literal weasel with the lax rules.
otherwise im not sure... going insane and then giving an insane man 30 billion dollars? that sounds like fun for me, hell on earth for hundreds of millions of other people lol. probably would do it if seriously offered it, people have been in the hole in prison for years and years and they dont get anything for that.
No.
What food
Showerz?
Toilet?
Details homosexual
The pic says you have nothing. Why are so many people trying to pilpul there way to having shit in there?
>have nothing
>gain something
its okay man, plenty of people have successful lives with sub 80 IQ
I would spend my time creating a great piece of art on the walls using nothing but my finger and my own feces.
that seems fairly easy for that much money
You will start tripping so hard after time without no stimulus
You literally start dreaming while awake
Check out reports of solitary confinement
Show me the reports of solitary confinement where they are promised 30 billion after a year
moron
You're still allowed to leave your cell for like an hour in solitary confinement
I wouldn't do it even with books/movies/phone/consoles
Yes.
Easy.
I've almost lived like this before.
I understand most people would go completely nuts though.
Assuming they feed and water me and I'm not just gonna die in the room, it'd be pretty easy. Meditation and bodyweight exercise.
When I get out I'll take that 30 billion and change the world. With that kind of money I could foster the talents of thousands of folk who think like I do, seep all sorts of fun ideas into everyone else's heads. The enemy may have infinimoney but they don't have the quality we do.
A worthy sacrifice.
>and change the world
You wouldn't change shit you sell out b***h.
Chad mindset, godspeed brother
Only one year for 30 billion? Easy, just do calisthenics and meditate.
Let's go for 15 for 45 billion
I would do it if there's no option to leave until time is up. If there is I would try and quit knowing myself like halfway through.
What is the time cost here? Does it go up with each consecutive day? $30 billion for a year is $82 million per day. $3.4 million per hour and $950 per second. Can I just stay in there for a few hours? What if it climbs exponentially? I stay in there for a year and two days, do I get $4.2 trillion? At what point does this currency become worthless?
Why are there always unfun homosexuals like that you that need to ask more dumb questions. The rules are the rules homosexual.
Can you not read? It's one year for 30 billion.
It's not pro-rated. If you leave before the time is up you get $0.
>rules are clearly stated in plain English
>some homosexual has to question it because they feel their headcanon is superior
Every fricking time
I’d do it. Just jerk off, do calisthenics, meditate, lucid dream and Jamiroquai that shut up. One year later I’ve secured the wealth and fortune for generations to come.
no way, you'd go crazy. if I can get one of those things that are denied I might be able to do it but it's still very unlikely imo.
What about food and toilet and bathing
running around and smearing shit on the walls on month 2 would keep me IST
Can I leave whenever I’m ready to pussy out and call it quits? Is there a toilet a shower/towels and something to fap unto? I’m assuming food snd drink also and a bed and those lights turn out at bed time most importantly?
no you moron it’s a challenge not a comfy fap room
>the first monetized internet livestream show was a japanese comedian who had to live alone in an empty apartment until he could furnish it with a million yen of magazine prizes
>no human contact besides delivery man
>food had to be gained from magazine contest prizes too
>crippling social trauma to this day having completed the challenge after several months
Being in an empty room would tear your mind in half. If you have the option to cancel the challenge and leave you'd do it at some point. But maybe if you get locked into the commitment I'd do it to set my family and friends up for life when I get out.
Your situation lacks
>steady food/water unlike what is assumed in the OP
>a reward that sets you for life if you get out as an incentive
>privacy
It also includes a sense of time, which is by far the most difficult part of the OP.
What would you do with 30 billion dollars?
I would buy a big news outlet and turn it into /misc/
I spend about two billion of it getting myself to space.
I then spend the remaining 28 million ensuring nobody else ever will.
Three possibilities:
>you emerge with a damaged psyche, but you're capable of mostly adapting/healing into a state in which you can enjoy your wealth and have normal positive human relationships
>you emerge with a damaged psyche that can be sort-of healed into a state where you can enjoy your wealth in stretches of independence/lucidity, but you also experience stretches of insanity where you must be cared for or institutionalized and wealth is irrelevant to your suffering; normal human relationships are temporary and rocky
>you emerge with a psyche so damaged that you can never live independently, form positive human relationships, or meaningfully push the needle on your pain with your wealth
I like to think I'd land somewhere between 1 and 2 if I had adequate prep work and a game plan of mental activities to work with
Even if I landed in category 3 I could donate a lot of money to people I love and causes I cared about and make a bigger difference in the world than I could 100 ordinary lifetimes, so I think it would be worth it
I beleive that you deserve better than that suffering, regardless of the potential monetary benifit fo you or yoir loved ones.
The amount of people who think they can last a year is laughable. Frick, you won't even last half of that.
No problem for me. I'm already used to being alone and being put in situations where there is no entertainment or anything to put your mind at work or focus. It's torture for some people but I have been pushed since young age to endure these. As long as there is food, water I can do it.
Oh wow. Another meaningless bullshit hypothetical situation post. Didn't most people stop posing these stupid whatiffs in early puberty?
Yes, most people have their souls beaten out of them in childhood/adolescence
A big chunk of humanity were born with one in the first place
Ah yes
>I have a soul because I marinate over stupid hypothetical situations all day

go watch some more anime
i did this for 4 years in college and it cost me 4k euros a year, frick yeah i can do that. if you’re recording be prepared to have roughly 300 days worth of solo porn content with a hairy ass ginger dude
When I lived alone in my student flat I sometimes didn't see or talk to anyone in so long the words wouldn't come out when I tried to say something.
Do pushups, run and jump around, have fun bouncing off the walls and such.
If they don't turn off the lights ever then no, otherwise yes. I could get some good meditation and exercise in. Actually, if they allowed me a notebook and pencil that would be great, but not necessary
his is technically the dream of a neet. Do nothing and get paid for what you have been doing for free.
I feel like i would become a buddhist monk (imperatively brain damaged) if i did this
>Natural light/ability to turn off lights
>Separate shitter/shower area
>Desk to sit at to have meals
>Good meals
I'd give it a go.
This, except I can live with bland meals and no chair to sit on.
Give me unlimited pen and paper and I can push two years easily.
Just manifest a tulpa
I'd fricking do it and walk out of there completely sane and 30 billion dollars richer.
Who cares you end insane if you are rich? We have plenty of those and no one seems to have a problem.
I've lived like this before, I could do it for a year easy assuming my needs are met, I can reclude into my fantasy world I have in my head
>I've lived like this before
No you didn't.
I was in solitary for a month, probably about as close as you can get
That room would have no sound coming in or out. lights on all the time. You have nothing to do for a year. It would make your solitary confinement look like vacation. You wouldnt last a week in there.
Can you quote where do you get all this information from? I have not read how lights even work. Do they get turned off at night? Are these actual noise cancelling walls? They look not despite being able to mitigate some thanks to the cushions.
That room is from a psychiatric hospital and they don't try to make the patients even more crazy when they are put there. The cushions are to avoid them to harm against walls.
is it prorated? I’ll do a week easily for 576 million
Mah homie
Exactly.
You are underestimating the experiences some of us have been through. Perhaps we are already damaged, or simply don't care if that happens anymore.
You are underestimating just how much it means to you to know if it's night or day outside. Just to know what time is it when you wake up.
>b-but I lived like a lonely basement dwelling friendless virgin all my life!
Yeah and you seek endless mental stimulation inside of that room, which in most cases is the computer. All the while being aware what time is it.
Don't be so quick to project your own life to me. I have been in a dark cave in south america for weeks, alone and eating cheap cans of beans only. Hardest part was to be dirty without showering. It is true your sleep cycle gets fricked but that is not the worst it gets. There is hearing hallucinations where you think someone is there with you. Scary shit. Your health deteriorates from lack of sun and your senses readjust to the point it is VERY painful to get out.
Why did you buy a bunch of beans and move into a cave? Why not bring other food? Why stay in there all day every day?
You are still fed so there is some timeframe
All the (presumably canned) food is already there. Point is no one interacts with you in any way for a year.
I'm not a fed
Seems doable in theory but i imagine the brain damage would not be worth it.
>this is like hell for extroverts
lol. lmao.
Bunch of delusional children ITT.
You have no idea how much just not having any sense of time would frick you up very quickly. Just a couple days in you'd already have your entire sleeping schedule beyond fricked. Imagine going to sleep, you sleep for just 45 minutes and you wake up thinking it's already the next day with you sleeping for 7-8 hours. Now compound that for 365 days, just a month or two in you'd already think you're very close to being there a whole year. But it just keeps going and going.
And this is just about not having sense of time, not to mention the fact that you reside in a completely featureless bright white silent room. By month three you'd already have the entire room smeared in shit just to get any kind of mental stimulation and you STILL have 9 months left to live there all by yourself.
This isn't the case of "not being a normalgay" or any kind of moron cope like that, you would have permanent drastic mental problems from it no matter what. You finally get out, get the 30 billion dollars and you buy a gun with it and have a nice day in the head the same day.
I kinda expected the lights to go out. Although I can meditate myself to deep rest
>he isn't capable of using his own mind for stimulation and even developing his own way of achieving an approximation of the passing of time
literally mentally ngmi
Yeah bro you're the only human on the planet who can "achieve approximation of the passing of time" without any external stimulus that's exactly right, you are very special and unique such a genius
>you need to be a 500 IQ genius to learn a creative way to count the time
damn dude, just how empty your goddamn mind is
are you even capable of imagining an apple
Please do tell my dear one of a kind genius, how you would "count the time" without any external stimulus of any kind?
I'm waiting
i dunno, but perhaps you could put a small piece of poop high in the wall and see how much time it takes to slide down.
it is by no means precise, the poop could just fall sometimes, but this shit clock could give you a slight idea of time
I can imagine an apple every which way you want. It's the strength of my brain that would kill me in there. I'm sure some of you would make it but it's not because you're smart.
We have an inner clock. I've Been able to approximate half an hour under 30 seconds off. Its a skill
And then you go to sleep in a bright room, sleep for 2 hours, you wake up in a still bright room and tell me how would you know how much time has passed when you were sleeping?
Nail and hair growth helps with Day approximation
Both your hair and nails would grow way slower once you wouldn't see the sun for a longer period of time. They would also become very brittle and break very easily as well.
ADHD take.
The same would happen to every normal healthy brain.
Go for just 45 minutes in a sensory deprivation isolation tank and you'll start to see and hear things by the end of it even though you are in a pitch black soundproof room with ear plugs in with nothing happening around you. That doesn't mean that you're mentally ill, but that your brain is desperate for any kind of stimulus when deprived of it entirely. Same exact concept in OP situation, just on a much much longer scale.
You all keep saying this. Where in the post does it say this room is sensory deprivation? It just looks like a room they lock a loon in
Don't bother anon. They are upset because they are unable to pass the challenge, so to not feel less they pull imaginary requirements that aren't there to say it's impossible for everybody else as well.
>buying a gun and actually having it in hand the same day
Not how it works buddy. You’d be lucky to have it in 3 days.
What kind of leftist homosexual commune do you live in?
I could go to the store right now and have a gun in 30 minutes, most of which will be driving over there
You sound so impressionable, like you watched a TikTok video about this topic once and believed everything an overdramatic narrator told you. Plenty of people have survived long periods of isolation and confinement throughout history.
Am I not allowed to jerk off? I'd constantly be rubbing my balls. I'd probably die from that before anything else.
Really depends on the light, food, air humidity, warmth and such. I do a lot meditation and yoga so there is progression there.
black is dead in the bottom left, but has two big corners, white's groups in the top right are probably alive, but really small. I think black wins unless white can significantly reduce the bottom right.
nobody cares you stupid virgin
<|:{D
Is this supposed to be hard? Even extroverts learned how easy it is to isolate themselves thanks to fraudemics lockdowns.
$30bil for 1 year isolated from humanity is absolute bliss if something, it would be the biggest brain detoxifying of my life.
If you want to make it supposed to have stakes, at least make the challenge about being jailed and surviving a prison full of feral Black folk or something.
>it would be the biggest brain detoxifying of my life.
The opposite, it would TOXIFY your brain to suicide. No sense of time, no knowledge of night and day, complete silence without any reaction no matter what you do, no mental stimulation except constant bright white lights. You'd go through the gooning/working out/speaking to yourself/fantasizing cycle countless times in just two weeks, now have fun for 342 more days
Are you pretending to be moronic? Do you unironically not see any difference between seeting in a room with internet and sitting in an absolutely empty room? Turn off your pc and stare at a wall for an hour, then report on your experience.
Extroverts shitting their pants ITT is so funny to watch.
Even funnier is the over zealous "le quirky and unique introverts" thinking they'd survive even a week let alone a whole year because "I hate people, piece of cake :)"
It has nothing to do with a lack of human interaction at all. It has everything to do with a total deprivation of stimulation and sense of time.
But that's okay, you can pretend to be the internet tough guy over some fantasy situation.
I keep hearing the lack of sensory stimulus and that but that is not true. You're not going to be put in one of those hippie swimming tanks where you get hallucinations. You have:
1-Light in the room
2-You can hear your footsteps, yourself and any noise you make
3-You can feel textures, temperature, pain
4-You can taste food and beverages
5-You can smell, even if it's your own farts
There is still a sense of time, it is going to be less accurate. You'll sleep at weird hours because you're not doing shit and that will be your first obstacle before the body notices the day/night cycle is gone. It will adapt to a different point of reference. If you are getting meals handed over at a regular time you can use that, but if you're isolated in a room without external input you can still manage ways of finding patterns or creating these yourself. Of course if you do nothing and just let the room make you your b***h you're going to lose your mind. That is why everyone here keeps making fun of extroverts who are not used to use their wits to extract resources from unthinkable places. It's not super challenging once you are already used to some things.
Anyway it's not guaranteed that one can succeed. Perhaps some will give up at the 6 month mark. Others will get traumatized and have problems to get out. Some may just not come back sane. I wouldn't just send a newbie there, has to be someone that already has an idea of what awaits in the other side of that door. Mental strength, knowledge and creativity are a must.
If nothing else, you can probably track time by measuring your hair. That's more or less constant
homie, you wouldn't last two weeks
you are GAY
I'm not the one that is afraid of going there, not being able to suck wieners for an entire year like (You)
Extroverts itt already panicking even though they aren't even in that room yet LMAO
Nowhere says you cannot sense time in the description. Maybe the door has a window. That lets you peak outside where there is an empty garden.
Lmao yeah bro the other side of a completely featureless padded out white asylum room is a nice window that overlooks a garden with a pretty lady taking care of the flowers am i rite.
She even flirts with you
I dont need the window, just gave it to you as a symbol of hope so you would feel less claustrophobic. Some in this thread are already having an emotional breakdown already from imagining the room. Don't worry, I'm here. I wont leave you alone, sweety.
Yeah you don't need any extermal stimulus am i rite, you're just replying and writing these posts as punishment and you'd actually prefer staring at a blank wall in a locked bright white empty basement for 365 days straight am i rite
We get it, you would never survive without being terminally online 24/7, you completely fried your dopamine receptors, etc etc
Not everyone is like you though
Nice projection. Protip: being on a computer isn't the only possible external stimulus. Just being to look outside is a huge stimulus when you're left with nothing but white bright walls.
Some of us are enduring harder shit than not watching the light cycle behind a glass. That is why so many empathize with the idea of being easy to do this experiment despite the effort and the risks.
I myself have lived many years locked with an unmedicated schizophrenic brother who does not stop talking to me and being a nuisance 24/7. The happiest day in the past 10 years was when he fainted for half an hour due to low blood pressure. The psychological torment is hard to resist. Peace to me seems too tempting even if it kills me im that room. Is the best way I could think of dying, alone and in silence.
Of course you see it as "peace" in comparison to a hectic living environment, but it would be the opposite of peace in a short period of time. You would develop 10 different unmedicated schizophrenic brothers living in your very own head in such a room
I already spend most of my days schizo-maxxing in silence in my maladaptive daydreams, this sounds like the easiest money I could ever make. As long as they provide me with healthy meals and supplements and a way to monitor my physical vitals, idgaf about spending a year or even 2 for twice that money
Today I learned extroverts are afraid of white rooms and of losing their sense of time.
You're a proper mental midget for thinking this has anything with introverts/extroverts.
Stimulus =/= human interaction.
Easiest year of my life. I already live like this
He says, posting on the Internet.
Oh noooo I won't be able to visit this hellhole
i would do it if i was 26 instead of 36. i feel there is not enough time left to be worth sacrificing.
How about 500 million years you won't remember?
%3D%3D
nobody would be able to do it, it would kill you
a few days will have you begging to be let out
There's enough in my head already to keep me busy. I would just organize it. Or I could infer new things, like chess moves. I could do it.
I would do it if there were a toilet. Also, how's the food? Enough to survive or good enough for gainz?
i would do this for 250k
push ups, squats, planks, running
Can I just do 1 day for the 82 million? Wtf is the significance of 30bn? Seems arbitrary.
Are pens and a blank notebook nothing?
Why bother with those when you can just write on the wall with your shit?
I think I'd use blood first actually
Nice try, Klaus, but I'm still not living in the pod, still not eating the bugs, still owning something, and still not being happy.
>ctrl f
>shit
Calisthenics, shadow boxing and BJJ drills
If I’m given access to enough food, staying fit would be extremely easy.
I'd make up stories and then act them out as little plays and skits while playing all the characters.
>no fricking toilets
they better hope i don't need to shit at all because that padded floor's getting ruined
So basically this except you dont die at the end?
>play around pretending I'm a knight, cowboy, pirate, space soldier, whatever, for a full year like I did in my room when I was a kid, only this time I can actually do all the jumping around and rolling and falling down I want to
Get paid to go in tbe Hyperbolic Time Chamber? Hell yeah, sign me up!
during college I used to sleep 16 hours a day
Nicer than my room currently, no work, no annoyances. I'd gladly do it.
At the bare minimum I would want to have it live streamed and be able to read a chatroom about what people are saying, that would help my sanity. Also you could even feed me the same shit every single day like mac n' cheese or whatever.
You guys are absolutely delusional. Losing track of time will destroy you. Vsause did it for only 3 days and he turned into a complete schizo at the end.
VSAUCE couldn't do it? THE Vsauce?! Then there is no hope for any of us
Michael isn't exactly stable under normal circumstances
3 days and turned into a complete schizo
>Implying I'm not already an enlightened one.
>oh no, extrovert influencer who begs for attention for a living couldn't live without... attention?
>holy shit I sure showed IST losers this time!
>do that
>come out with 30bn
>women are still prostitutes
>Black folk are still stealing and killing
>israelites still run the country
Why bother lol?
Has there ever been a time where the world was good and just? And the point of this is to get the money not to change the state of things. If that bothers you then now you have money to start making a change. Make it your motivation instead of complaining that is not worth it.
With that much money you could buy all the women you want, hunt Black folk for sport, and become a israelite.
Also everyone is focusing in the picture that is an illustration. The prompt says you get nothing and still get to live 1 year. Where does the food come from? The water? The image shows nothing yet there has to be a toilet. It's not in the picture but it's given for granted these things are there. The room can be anything that is locked. It could have a small glass on the top that lets the sun in or maybe not. If the room kills you the challenge has no purpose. It must contain a way to sense time for the same reason you're given food. If you can't live without sensory input then it's an execution room and thus there is no challenge. You're making the mistake of taking it literal when there are some interpretations to be made.
The challenge is your will power, not having entertainment or anything at all to do. So you must thrive in that environment. It's not a challenge against time, physics or the biochemistry of your body.
That's because there is an excess of college 1st year posters who read the text and spam "hahah he forgot to say there if there is oxygen in the room!".
It's that mentality of trying to search for the false statement they negate the basics which starts by the reading comprehension component. The picture doesn't say a lot of things but it's not forbidding them either. That is where you reach an impasse. We'd sit and argue ad infinitum of what you are allowed and not, what there is and what not.
The pic says you have to be in a room for 1 year and makes a big emphasis on the lack of entertainment because the author is obviously addressing the point of the challenge to be your mental discipline. The room is not your challenge you morons. The point of the room being empty and locked is so you can't entertain yourself. If the lack of light kills you then someone will put a hole in a wall and let you see the sun only or whatever solution to this there can be. It's not a university exam to find the flaw in, don't be so fricking dense.
I’d die of dehydration in a few days
That would be pretty easy way to get 30b.
>but you'd go crazy
>muh sense of time
>muh day and night
I am already completely batshit insane right down to constantly talking to myself out loud and even arguing with myself. I once spent two weeks watching paint dry on a concrete wall, literally every day, the entire day except for sleeping, eating and shitting. Bring it on.
Given the option to leave, the average, sane human would be unable to do this. I don't care how much willpower you have, your mind will break.
I’m concerned I would walk having gone completely insane.
If you gave me a Nintendo Switch, a clock and a calendar I could do it no problem though.
My circadian rhythm doesn’t work. I can only sleep if I get so exhausted that I fall over, or if I listen to sounds of people yawning/watch people yawn. For the first 12 years of my life my main form of entertainment was pacing back and forth, thinking, and playing imaginary games with nothing. I love to draw and play with my own blood, I do calisthenics and running, and I’ve heard that you actually sleep longer when in these situations. My only issue would be my family, gf, and my fraternity. I’d be confident a few months ago, but now I’d probably develop a sort of paranoia about the people I love, unless that is that they’d be on board with this. I wouldn’t worry about my gf cheating because we both already slept around and I am the most beautiful man in a 500 mile radius.
>essentially Count of Monte Cristo on easy mode
spend the days planning your revenge. use your feces to write your manifesto and count the days by how often they bring you your gruel.
I would need a few things but I could do it.
-Clock
-Digital Calendar
-Typewriter
-Lube and imagination
-Cook my own food
-One diverse gym machine
-Textbooks on collegiate subjects
It would be the easiest shit in the world, probably comfy too.
No food?
For all the homosexuals saying “this would be so easy because im already a loser” I have a task for you. Stare at a completely empty wall and count to one full minute. Congrats! only 525,599 more to go! Tell me more about how you’d breeze through it cause you’ve never had sex.
It takes 5 seconds to google a hundred years of sensory depravation research and the observed mental destruction it consistently causes.
You are all the cringiest wannabe anime protags on the planet lmao I bet half of you are just waiting to get Isekaied
Yeah no one cares. Go talk to an empty wall or something.
>Stare at a completely empty wall and count to one full minute. Congrats! only 525,599 more to go!
WOOHOO!
I would think about ll the possible outcomes of Shaiden Rogue VS Bruce Less if they ever were fighting....
*all
*Lee
>NOTHING
obviously I die of starvation rather quickly.
Isolation for that long can cause psychosis
I still don't get why people are making associations of experiments that have nothing to do with this. You're not getting thrown in the confinement room of a prison in pure darkness for days. There is no sensory deprivation in the room either and the rules are very, I repeat, VERY unspecified. How are you fed? What happens with the food leftovers? You underestimante how little can keep a man alive in such situation. If I have a pile of empty cans of sardines or something of the sort I can entertain myself for months. Do I shit in a corner or there is some hole in the ground? Can I wipe or shower? Is it a 100% blind room or the is a door/windows? Do I have a chair or a table? I could doodle in the wall with a sharp object or my long nails if nobody is watching. I could go on but the point is the key to solve this is in details that are not specified. It is doable and it is not at the same time depending on what you perceive the challenge to be. If it's that much open to interpretation then we're wasting our time arguing.
Ok let's say i'm the one hosting the challenge. Obviously the person would have a sink, shower and toilet for health and sanitation purposes. As for food it should be random and given through a hole in the door by someone that doesn't talk to you. You get three journals, and three books of your choice. Now what do you think?
Maybe you should read the link you posted, which describes a torture procedure with a list of items this challenge does not enforce. More over the picture OP posted is from a madhouse room, which is designed among many things to avoid self injury. It's not aimed to blind you from receiving sensorial input.
Further more the point of the whole thing is not to endure a torture but to prove you can live without being fed with distractions. That is why there is no effort explaining the details that would matter in a survival challenge, which this is not. That, assuming the creator of this was just lazy or dumb. Point is we can't really draw conclusions that far and those who see it impossible are as wrong as those who think it's a walk in the park.
OP posted a pic of a white room with bright lights and the prompt says you will have nothing at all for a year which to me implies you are meant to be deprived of any stimulation or sense of time. I think you are impugning an awful lot of intent that is not there. I am however willing to agree that OP is both intensely dumb and lazy.
Just google the source of the picture, anon. It can give the perception of being that kind of room but it's not, which leads to so many to fall for the confirmation bias. "I think it's this kind of challenge" -> the room looks similar to one -> that confirms it.
>Faux-stoic morons
I'm just built different
frick no. I would go insane in a week if not couple days
>How would you stay IST throughout this?
Cut a small Fleshlight hole into one of the floor cushions and one of the wall cushions.
This is what I've always wanted from the earliest I could remember
I would pay for get in something like this, but someone provides me with healthy food that hit my macros, and also reams of paper so I can improve my math skills.
This post is extremely telling of how coddled/underage IST truly is. It seems like none of you have done this before. I guarantee none of you would make it a month in there. When you don't know how much time is passing your mind plays immense tricks on you. What felt like 3 days was actually just 18 hours. You start to sleep sporadically as your body mostly relies on the sun to keep it's circadian rhythm. Psychosis would kick in within 2 weeks and all your attempts at keeping your mind busy will fail on day 8. After 4 months (you'll think it's been a year+) you'll imagine that humanity has ceased to exist, that this is just God's (even if you were atheist going in) cruel punishment for all the sins you've committed in your life. Or perhaps the devil had plotted with all those people you knew in your life, they all were secretly conspiring to give you some semblance of normality before tricking you into this hellbox. You'll beg for mercy. You'll go over every sin you can remember. Then you'll start biting off your flesh to punish yourself faster hoping to please god, hoping to escape purgatory faster, hoping to be allowed to die.
There's only one scenario that you get through it without going insane, and that's if you've mastered meditation to the degree that you can literally shut off your mind. To the point that it does nothing. Because if you give the mind an inch it will take a mile. One leaked thought will flourish into a train of thought and the first train will go along the lines of "why am I meditating how long has it been this is stupid I need to get out i need fresh air the air isn't being circulated well enough I'm suffocating is the room getting smaller every time I wake up what's that ringing in my ears do I have tinnitus" etc etc. If you go in untrained you are fricked. You'll be begging to be let out within a few weeks unless you're a crazy bastard. In which case you'll make it a few months at best.
I don't think anyone is denying that kind of scenario ends with such outcome. Most people here are arguing the case where, thanks to finding holes in the premises, they could sneak techniques to keep themselves sane.
When I was a kid I was forced to stay alone in rooms where there were no toys or books, just me and furniture. Spent many years like that. It's not the same as this thing, but for a kid was enough for me to grow up not wanting to have human connections. This shit really messes you up, I am the living proof that this is true. The question is how much restricted this is because everyone here decided to see it under a different layer. I think one tends to find a catch based on what they believe it's harder to overcome. Lonely men think they have it easy so they underestimate that things in extreme don't work the same as in installments. Humans are designed to endure harsh scenarios for some time but not forever.
If this has no way to cheat it and the rules are extremely strict then it's a dead trap. Yet the possibilities are endless as long as there are things you can bend to your advantage.
Half the thread thinks that cause of their autism or neet lifestyle they wouldnt even notice they were there.
If it's that kind of confinement that is made to torture people then they are done for. Yet the setting is a wide spectrum because, thinking back to the covid days, I recall people who were normally functional adults who were forced into the neet life for a few months with all comforts yet they took their lives. It wasn't the fear or hysteria, they couldn't bear to be alone. Neets do have a small point when they think of themselves as more adapted than the average person, but they underestimate the same would happen to them the closer this gets to total isolation.
But well it's a very human trait to think you can do stuff until you try. Everyone here may claim that they could climb a big mountain, even with equipment. The bodies one can see are evidence of the contrary.
Still most here who are neets received the short straw in life and are depressed, most already with disorder issues. Can't really blame them for overestimating their capacity to endure more of the same while they ignore the dangers. No different of a cocaine addict that gets another snort thinking his heart wont stop.
I couldn't trust myself to voluntarily stay for a full year, I don't think anyone could. I'm assuming they lock you in there for a year when you make the decision.
your mind still adapts to total and complete isolation, it just so happens that the adaption is a fractured psyche and you are pulled out of isolation talking to your hand like its wilson from castaway. there are some neets who live on that borderline of being fricking nuts and still managing to function, for them i guess the transition would be a lot smoother than throwing ultra giga chad into a room away from his vast social network and constant social stimuli
this is awesome and I for sure would do it. Just meditate all day, workout when I'm not, and sleep. It would be the best year of my life. I already unplugged from society for 5 years 1 more wouldn't hurt. And after about 6 or 7 days of straight meditation time stops and you enter eternity. Only reason I'm not living in a cave right now doing just that is because I've already done it. Give me 30B for doing the easiest thing ever? Yes please.
I feel like the only way you'd be able to survive this with your brain somewhat intact would be if you had a way to gauge the passing of time. Without that you'd go batshit crazy and your sense of time would be utterly fricked. Ten days in you'd probably think you'd been in there a month.
If your meals were given to you at a consistent interval you could at least try and use that to count the time and you could always keep a running tally. Even dots of blood on the walls would be enough.
I think people here are seriously underestimating the impact of absolutely zero stimulus has on the mind and are overestimating how resilient they are.
Test
Why has nobody done this yet?
>Set up a go fund me/kickstarter/whatever
>Set goal of X million dollars
>If goal is reached, then use portion to arrange the setup of this circumstance
>can even do shit like notes for "there will be 1 hour of sun at noon every day" and other things for health/safety/etc
>Go in and livestream it
>Leave 1 year later as a multimillionaire
You won't be able to reach a billion, sure, but hitting ~5 million shouldn't be impossible
...maybe I'll do it myself actually
As long as its confirmed ill ACTUALLY be getting the money, sure. I'll probably just stare at the ceiling and play with my food/water
i would do lots of pushup variations, and high rep squats + pistol squats.
and the rest of the time i would spend in prayer
I'd do it for free
everyone involved in this thread is moronic lmao
you guys really think because you've been lonely and live in shit conditions with no friends and an escapist imagination, it's the same as surviving a year of literal sensory deprivation. peak dunning-krueger.
Where do you all keep ass pulling "literal sensory deprivation," it's a padded room you dumbfrick
holy frick you're dumb. have you ever read a book in your life?
a padded room with no sunlight, no human contact, no stimulation and no way to tell the passage of time is sensory deprivation. it doesn't matter what your moronic definition personally is, it's a documented thing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_torture
keep deluding yourself though lol, it's funny. please post here next time there's a news article about someone dying to a group of 10 bears that you could've "actually fought them off with your bare hands" and that it's "not that hard"
You're the dumb one. Padded rooms aren't made to make you go crazy. Yea anon, they just stick crazy people in them to make them more crazy. No, they're made to help you calm down. Please look up what a real sensory deprivation room looks like
>Yea anon, they just stick crazy people in them to make them more crazy
not only are you regular dumb but you're also illiterate. it says right there that it's been historically used as a torture technique on regular people. but instead of reading you only get your information from fictional media and memes and think white padded rooms as seen on tv are only for crazy people in asylums.
you sound like a 17 year old with no idea of how the world actually works. maybe you think you're mentally strong because you deal with shit living conditions and loneliness, thinking you're special for suffering your own mediocrity and that it sets you apart from normies. but please keep telling us that you're built different and decades of declassified military interrogation and torture techniques, with carefully studied effects that have worked time and time again are actually wrong
You're the illiterate. The picture you posted literally proves my point. The description of the white room doesn't match the original picture. Dumb ass I swear
>The description of the white room doesn't match the original picture
lmao is this what you're going to resort to? "actually the description says there wouldn't be any shadows but the pic has lights that would cast a shadow!" and such?
you've made your stupidity clear as day, just accept it and try to do better next time.
read a book.
Just admit you're b***hmade and don't have the mental resolve to last a year in a cushy room lol
you're right sport, i'm sure you could!! and if you were on the titanic i bet things would've been different, you would've shown the iceberg whose boss
The way your mind works is so stupid
>quotes facts and rules that don't belong in the challenge as solid requirements
>uses them as argument of why everyone else is wrong
Half of this thread is a giant strawman.
>one year without working
I'll jump in there for free
>lol fricking normies, this is no issue for me, I've been doing all my life
Learn to read Black folk. It says NOTHING. You would have to sit there alone with your mind and thoughts during one year without evasion, which is by the way what you do every time you are losing your time on the internet.
You gaygets can't even last a day isolated without checking your computer/phone.
Yet you're throwing a baby fit about it lol
Yeas, illiteracy unnerves me
moronic take, you are either receive trully nothing and die from dehydration (and that will make the challenge pointless, and thats why nobody choose this stupid interpretation) or you get food, water and some hygienic stuff and then you can have some sensory stimulus.
If every white room with cushions is a confinement room then report your local mental hospitals for having torture chambers. Go on, I'll wait.
>your local mental hospitals for having torture chambers
Have you only watched some random movies and think that's how real life hospitals and asylums today work?
The source of the picture is from one. You can search it yourself. If your local facility for the mentally ill happen to have one of these, do us the favor of telling them to stop using these. Thank you.
Asylums don't exist in the US today the way they used to. Unless you're living in a thirdie country or are privy to secret conspiracies, your "local" hospital today absolutely does not have one of those
I don't know where you are from nor where anyone else is either, this board has no flags attached to posters. If that is the case with your country then I can rest with ease knowing your mental patients are receiving a more humane treatment than it was in darker days.
For everyone else reading this, hopefully these rooms are a thing of the past. If not then I pray that you can make them reconsider their practices. I leave you my most sincere wish for luck on that quest.
Anon I don't know what they did to you but whatever it was you definitely deserved it
It's naive to believe such justice could exist in this world, anon.
How about make it realistic. 1 year here for 3 year salary of your country's average salary whichever is more.
Sucks, that's not worth it. I can make more by trading shitcoins with my phone while I entertain myself. Or I can just wage harder too.
I've seen a lot of points regarding the lack of a concept of time, but to me the key is that it doesn't say you will be alone or unable to talk to people. To me the answer is predicated on that.
So one of the earliest forms of American prison was in Philadelphia in the late 18th century, there was no talking allowed whatsoever, as both punishment and a purantical time for self reflection when they'd release the prisoners after sentences longer than a few months they often had lost their minds, due to the lack of social interaction. Like most of you I think people are in fact c**ts, and to be avoided, but as a species we are still 99% pleisotcene, and therefore are still pack animals, you may be introverts, but likely you still interact with someone whether it be a friend, relative, or through work by physical or technological means. The picture seems to be the view into the cell, show me the 4th wall and we'll talk, cause if i can still at least talk to people then I think it's doable, you'd have at least one form of stimulation and could ask how long it's been. Then you'd just have to keep reminding yourself you'll work way more hours in a job over your lifetime for considerably less or you'll snap in there and have a nice day either way financials problem solved.
Im going to eat, drink and jerk off my way out. If im horny, drunk and high most of the time i can escape the mental decay in the room. The rest of the time i will workout, sleep, eat, shit, daydream, snack, craft a book in my head and more shit. Its going to be unhealthy and i will feel bad many times but i will make up for it once im out.
It's not that bad of an approach if we consider a coma patient can come back after years, a stoned guy in a room could survive with some luck. I would not do it myself though.
>jerk off
you will be monitored by hidden cams 24/7 though, are you sure
Thats my fetish
It's not much different from my current life, I already daydream for 8 hours.
>30 billion
only a moron that has no grasp of numbers would say no.
Over half the thread was one guy panicking over the mere thought of being in that room and projecting his deep fears onto others lol
This challenge is not as big deal as he desperately tries to force it, unless you are a mentally healthy normalgay or somebody who never faced loneliness in his life
It's okay, he is back on meds right now. Praise his soul.
>dude I am lonely so I could do it heh
LIke I said, bunch of delusional children.
Even if they were to give you 1000 gorillion bucks, nobody can survive there for more than a week. There was no mention about food, water or even a shitter. Even if you had food and water, all the shit would eventually fill the room killing you slowly.
Solitary confinement is considered torture for a reason. You will never be normal again after it. You won't be the same person when you come out, you'll struggle with even basic tasks like drinking water or standing up. You won't be able to enjoy video games or anime anymore and you'll probably never sleep for more than 2 hours a day. People really underestimate brain damage.
